Number 37 C ALIPOIINIA 8840t May 9, 1972 INVENTOR, DESIGNER WILLIAM LEAR WILL SPEAK ON THURSDAY "How to be a Creative and Positive Thinker,·" is the topic chosen by William P. Lear for his talk at Cal Poly on Thursday (May 11) at 11 a.m. in the Chumash Auditorium of the Julian A. McPhee College Union. Lear is a man whose career is filled with hundreds of examples of creative and positive thinking. By being a creative person and maintaining a positive attitude, Lear has amassed a vast personal fortune and contributed over 150 inventions that have become common in American life, from the car radio and the eight-track stereo tape to the auto­ matic direction finder and the famous Lear Jet. When Lear arrives in San Luis Obispo it will be at the con controls of his personal jet, although in 1967 he divested himself of interests in Lear Jet Industries. He is cur­ rently involved in research and development of low pollu­ tion power systems to replace the internal combustion en-· gine. In February the versatile inventor revealed his steam­ powered "bus of the future" at his test facility in Nev­ ada. H£ has invested $12 million in the project, con­ ducted at a former air .base near Reno which he has re­ named Leareno. He has been the subject of recent inter­ view features in Playboy and ~magazines. They char­ acterize him as affable, energetic, outspoken and immodest. Third in 1971-72 Series William P. Lear Lear is a member of the Institute of Radio Engineers, Institute of the Aeronautical Sciences. American Insti­ tute of Electrical Engineers, Society of Automotive Engineers. and Tau Beta Phi. His appearance will be the third in the Cal Poly Convocation Series, which earlier this year featured Nobel Prize winner Norman E. Borlaug, and anthropologist Louis s. B. Leakey. Lear's presentation will be co-sponsored by the college and the Student Coun­ cil of the School of Engineering and Technology. In 1962 Lear sold his personal and family-owned interests in Lear, Inc., in order to produce the plan~, which is the only production aircraft in the world to be developed with personal financing. Lear, Inc. l.ad been founded by Mr. Lear some 32 years earlier, and had grown to a com­ pany doing nearly $100 million dollars worth of business yearly, having more than 5,000 employees. The company had major plants in California, Michigan, Ohio, and Germany, and specialized in such products as aerospace instruments, electronics, automatic con­ trols, and fluid handling devices. (Continued on Page 2) - Cal Poly Report -- May 9, 1972 -- Pa~e 2 INVENTOR, DESIGNER WILLIAM LEAR • • • (Continued from Page 1) Development of the Lear Jet was initiated in Switzerland during 1960. It resulted from Lear's conviction that the businessman must be furnished. a small, light aircraft that would provide transportation with speed to equal that of jet airliners, but with much greater convenience. The aircraft was eventually built in Wichita, Kan., and the maid­ en flight was on Oct. 7, 1963. Subsequently the firm established an Avionics Division in Grand Rapids, Mich., Stereo Division in Detroit, where the concept of eight-track stereo sound tape first developed. After the Lear Jet became the most widely used business jet world, Lear sold his holdings as a major stockholder in Lear Jet Industries to Rubber Company of Denver, in 1967. and a was in the Gates In 1940 Lear was awarded the Frank M. Hawks Memorial Award for the design of the Lear­ matic Navigator. In 1950, he was awarded the Collier Trophy by the President of the United States for "the greatest achievement in aviation in America during the previous year." This was for the design of the Lear F-5 automatic pilot and automatic approach control coupler system. He is now completing development, design, and production of the world's most advanced autopilot. It is smaller and lighter than any autopilot yet developed and is suitable for any size aircraft. In 1951 the University of Michigan conferred on Lear the honorary degree of Doctor of Engineering, "to give public expression to its (the University's) appreciation of the advances which your inventive genius have made possible in modern methods of communica­ tion and aviation." In 1954 Lear received the Horatio Alger Award, "for having pulled himself up to the top of his field by his bootstraps." In 1969 the Los Angeles Art Center College of Design conferred on him the honorary Doctor of Science degree. During residence abroad in 1960, he received Sweden's Thulin Medal for his contributions to the aircraft industry, and was presented the Great Silver Medal by the City of Paris for his aid in developing the autopilot for the Caravelle jetliner. A long-time crusader for all-weather flight, Lear is recognized as one of the principals whose efforts culminated in the completely automatic blind landings of a Caravelle air­ liner (using a Lear-designed autopilot), which made aviation history in 1962.

Cal Poly Report -- May 9, 1972 -- Page 5 LIPIZZAN BLOOD LINE EXTENDS BACK 2,000 YEARS The Royal Lipizzan Stallions of Austria, whose blood lines extend back 2,000 years, have emigrated to the New World. An 18-event program of equestrian ballet performed by these same Lipizzaners will be presented in Mustang Stadium at Cal Poly at 8:15 p.m. next Tuesday (May 16). The student council of the School of Agriculture and Natural Resources is sponsoring the appearance. The public is invited. Tickets are offered in a range of prices according to locations. Special rates will be in effect for college students and children. Individual reserved seats in the best ·location of the stadium will be $6 for adults and $3 for children 12 or under and for college students. Adult ticket prices will be $3, $4 and $5 for vari­ ous .reserved sections. Children and college students with identification cards may ob­ tain seating in these sections at half price. Col. 0. J. Herrmann, whose family has trained Lipizzaners for seven generations, began bringing the white stallions to America six years ago and today has about 60 of the famous breed at his holding ranch near· Myakka City, Fla. The Lipizzan horses had ancestors in Andalusia, Spain, where a nimble and sturdy type of horse was known even before the Roman conquest about 200 B.C. The fine horses brought into Spain by the Roman legions were crossed with the Andalusians. About a thousand years later, when the Moors brought in Arab mounts, these also were crossbred with Andalusian stock. In the 16th century~ members of the Royal House of Hapsburg imported the Andalusians into Austria as their personal war horses, and there the breed was crossed with the Kladruber of Bohemia; somewhat later, Neapolitan blood was introduced into the line. All this took place at the stud farm established by the Hapsburg archduke about 1580 near the Carnilian village of Lipizza. The Lipizzaner of today stands 15 to 16 hands high and weighs up to 1,400 pounds but looks lighter. The added weight comes from large bones and heavy muscling for which he is celebrated. When foaled, the Lipizzaner is dark but he turns lighter as he ma­ tures so that by the time he is 8 years old he appears completely white. DEADLINE FOR LIBRARY QUESTIONNAIRES EXTENDED TO FRIDAY The deadline for receipt of the library questionnaires sent to faculty recently has been extended until Friday (May 12), according to an announcement from the committee which is sponsoring the project.

Only 38.7 percent of the 767 copies of the questionnaire, which was developed by the Subcommittee of the Academic Senate's Library Committee, had been returned by last Fri­ day (May 5). As a result, the original May 8 deadline, was extended. Committee mem­ bers hope it will provide time so that faculty who have not already done so can complete and return the· questionnaire. Those who may have misplaced the copy of the questionniare they originally received via the _campus mail, or who did not receive one, may obtain one by telephoning Miss Angelina Martinez (Head of Public Services), Library 546-2340.
